Crowe Society members are invited to create a page on our private online directory. The directory promotes alumni engagement among the 400-plus Crowe Society members. Our goal is for increased communication among Crowe members, to help each other as we seek job opportunities, consider fellowships, etc. This is an opportunity to give back and mentor Crowe members, as well as to re-engage with co-residents, co-fellows, colleagues and/or faculty members. Current and former research scientists are welcome. More than 150 people have created their page. To receive an invitation, please email Donna Clare, director of development at [email protected].
